What mass of CaSO3 must have been present initially to produce 14.5 L of SO2 gas at a temperature of 12.5°C and a pressure of 1.

german

When the reaction equation is:

CaSO3(s) → CaO(s) + SO2(g)

we can see that the molar ratio between CaSO3 & SO2 is 1:1 so, we need to find first the moles SO2.

to get the moles of SO2 we are going to use the ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

when P is the pressure = 1.1 atm

and V is the volume = 14.5 L

n is the moles' number (which we need to calculate)

R ideal gas constant = 0.0821

and T is the temperature in Kelvin = 12.5 + 273 = 285.5 K

so, by substitution:

1.1 * 14.5 L = n * 0.0821 * 285.5

∴ n = 1.1 * 14.5 / (0.0821*285.5)

= 0.68 moles SO2

∴ moles CaSO3 = 0.68 moles

so we can easily get the mass of CaSO3:

when mass = moles * molar mass

and we know that the molar mass of CaSO3= 40 + 32 + 16 * 3 = 120 g/mol

∴ mass = 0.68 moles* 120 g/mol = 81.6 g

When bismuth-212 undergoes alpha decay, it becomes which of the following?

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer: -

When bismuth-212 undergoes alpha decay, it becomes ²⁰⁸Tl

Explanation: -

Mass number of ²¹²Bi = 212

Atomic number of ²¹²Bi = 83

When alpha decay occurs the mass number decreases by 4 and the atomic number decreases by 2.

Mass number of daughter = 212 - 4 = 208

Atomic number of daughter = 83 - 2 = 81

It is the atomic number of Thallium Tl.

Thus the daughter nucleide is ²⁰⁸Tl.

How do you represent a shared pair of electrons when drawing the Lewis structure of a covalent bond

nataly862011 [7]

Answer: Each pair of shared electrons is a covalent bond which can be represented by a dash.

Explanation:

In a Lewis dot structure, the central atom can share electrons through bonds with the surrounding atoms, and this can look like a dash between the atoms.

In the reaction FeCl2 + 2NaOH ->Fe(OH)2(s) + 2NaCl, if 6 moles of FeCl2 are added to 6 moles of Na0H, how many moles of NaOH

pogonyaev

Answer : The correct option is, (B) 6 mole

Explanation :

Given moles of $FeCl_2$ = 6 moles

Given moles of $NaOH$ = 6 moles

First we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$FeCl_2+2NaOH\rightarrow Fe(OH)_2+2NaCl$

From the given balanced reaction, we conclude that

As, 1 moles of $FeCl_2$ react with 2 moles of $NaOH$

So, 6 moles of $FeCl_2$ react with $\frac{2}{1}\times 6=12$ moles of $NaOH$

From this we conclude that, $FeCl_2$ is an excess reagent and $NaOH$ is a limiting reagent because the given moles are less than the required moles and it limits the formation of product.

Thus, the number of moles of NaOH used up in the reaction = Required moles of NaOH - Given moles of NaOH

The number of moles of NaOH used up in the reaction = 12 - 6 = 6 moles

Therefore, the number of moles of NaOH used up in the reaction will be, 60 moles
